Often described as the Seinfeld of comedy podcasts, in as much as it deals with the
minutiae of social exchanges, Too Beautiful to Live is one of the longest running
and most popular comedy shows produced. Intelligent, adroit, and always funny,
even when things go vaguely awry, Too Beautiful to Live is among the world's most
entertaining imaginary radio produced.
The following podcast covers the first quarter of 2011, and has been split into three
parts. Each part represents a successive month. Please download all three parts to

Luke Burbank
Burbank began his career in radio by pinch hitting across a variety of shows and
genres, working either as a producer or as on-air talent. His work touched a
number of shows, including The Conversation, Rewind, and Day to Day. He later
became a reporter for NPR before starring as a regular panelist on the comedy
show Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! After a stint on The Bryant Park Project Burbank
returned to Seattle to begin work on Too Beautiful to Live.

Jen Andrews
Jen Andrews served as producer for a variety of shows at KIRO before becoming
executive producer of Too Beautiful to Live. The show marked the reunion of
Burbank and Andrews, who had known each other since childhood. Andrews left
the show for a time after its cancellation from radio and subsequent transition to
the podcast format, but soon after rejoined Burbank as he broadcast from his
home, "Burbank Studios."
